Source: Fall enrollment data provided as aggregate counts by community colleges and as individual student records by public universities, analyzed and released by the Higher Education Coordinating Commission.
Notes: Students enrolling in more than one institution in fall are included in both institutions’ counts. Full-time equivalent counts are defined in the colleges as the total number of clock hours in which all students enrolled divided by 510 (the annual full-time enrollment), and in the universities as credit hours divided by 15 at the undergraduate level, by 12 at the graduate level (excluding Ph.D.), and by 9 at the Ph.D. level (the term full-time enrollment).
